THEA 195 - Independent Study in Theatre Arts

Institution:

Drew University

Subject:

Description:

A tutorial course stressing independent investigation of a topic selected in consultation with the instructor. Regular meetings with adviser and written assignments or creative projects. Amount of credit established at time of registration. May be repeated once for credit. Signature of instructor required for registration. Prerequisite: At least eight credits in theatre arts courses. Offered every semester. A 12-credit package of internship experience and independent study with an established profesional theatre company in the New York/New Jersey metropolitan area. Open only to qualified Drew theatre arts majors. Students interning with the Shakespeare Theatre of New Jersey usually do the program from early May through mid-December, receiving 12 credits in the fall semester (normally of the senior year). Students interning with other theatres participate in the second or final (if finishing all graduation requirements in the fall) semester of their senior year after completing all of the requirements for the theatre arts major. At most 12 credits from internships in theatre and the Theatre Semester (THEA 197/198) mau be counted toward the degree. Therefore, students expecting to participate in the Theatre Semester should not take any internship (INTR 50) credits. Those who do internships and then decide to enroll in THEA 197/198 have the credits for THEA 197 reduced proportionally by the amount of internship credit earned or must exceed the minimum number of credits required for the B.A. degree by the amount of internship credits. Students can enroll in THEA 197/198 once only, choosing either to intern with the Shakespeare Theatre of N.J. or a theatre approved by the department.
